Do you think they could get Deke back next year to help coach Yao? I really think it helps having him, it seems like Yao plays better when he is here. If somebody could get Yao to play with a chip on his shoulder every game he would be so much better.
maybe as a special assistant coach but not using a roster spot? and hasn't stern already had arrangements for deke to take a position in the league office after he officially retires?
Are you guys making something out of nothing? I seriously doubt Deke is staring down Yao, it looked more like he was looking past him not AT him anyway. You guys sound like a bunch of schoolgirls starting rumors, seriously.
Maybe just staring at Yao Ming is the right way to get him motivated. Instead of getting rowdy the Rocket Rowdies should all just quiet down and stare at Yao Ming when he starts turning it over and missing shots during a game.
Mutombo Love Stare That was great. Deke will also give love when appropriate...see 10 seconds and the last 5 seconds of the clip Mutombo Love Stare <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Jss1xEzh5b4&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Jss1xEzh5b4&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
